Short video clip for 795 WHITMAN, MARILYN AND THE POLICE DOGS


The title 795 come from the number of copies printing of the first edition of “Leave of Grass” on May 15,1855 by Walt Whitman. He paid for and did much of the typesetting for the first edition himself. The book did not include the author’s name. Sales on the book were few but Whitman was not discouraged.
